Not so much here in Meredith. Primarily, we have oaks, pines and beech on our property. The oaks aren't producing a whole lot of anything...so far anyway. Our squirrels aren't going to like that and I suspect they'll relocate to the OP's house. I've never seen sap on oaks.
The pines on the other hand have good years and bad. This is unquestionably a good year. Very little sap and that means a lot less cleaning it off the deck and furniture. Definitely a blessing.
All that said, I did notice beginning few days ago that our deck seemed a bit 'sticky'. I assumed it was coming from the pines in a different way than it has in the past. Upon close inspection, instead of the normal larger drops, it's like a carpet bombing of countless micro pinprick sized droplets. I can't explain this. Normally it's larger drops and spatters that tend to come down, especially, with wind or rain.
